Week 1 Weigh In (everyone welcome)

Please feel free to post your weigh in results from today, if you weigh in on a Monday, or any other day if you wish. Everyone is welcome!

So... today was my first weigh in and I lost 10lb I am very pleased with this result.
I have another 18lb to lose in the next 20 days, thats around 6lb a week! What a challenge, but I'm focused and determined.

Hey Vixie! Thank you and well done on your results so far!!! You have done amazingly well just sticking to SS and 2.5lb in your second week is good, a lot of people only lose a lb or nothing, due to losing so much in the first week, I would be happy if I lost that this week, but as I am on a tight deadline I am really trying my best to lose as much as possible.
Good luck for week 3!! x

Thank you Debs!!
Well done on your loss so far, 7lb in 6 days is amazing, thats almost a lb a day! I wish I could lose that all of the time haha

I feel hungry, all of the time, not sure Im in ketosis, my sticks arent pink, they dont change colour so thats a bit rubbish.
Im doing it until the 12th April at the moment, and then I have a holiday for 15 days, and I really REALLY want to lose 2 stone by that point, but Im not convinced its going to happen.. but we will wait and see.
Yes Im doing SS at the moment, with the odd day as SS+. Im actually thinking of getting some white fish tonight, and having that with spinach, as apparently that makes a biggish looking dinner and I really feel like I might need that soon as Im so hungry all of the time.

How are you finding it so far? And are you on SS also? How much would you ideally like to lose?
Ooooh Saturday will be fun...?! That will certainly test your determination, I find it harder when people are eating, especially foods that I love. The other day I made my son a chicken kiev, with skinny fries, baked beans and cheese... OMG I had to resist from rugby tackling him for it! - poor sod

so you don't have a lot to loose really do you hun.. I unfortunately have around 5 stones to loose ;o(, sheesamondo that sounds soo much.

I don't feel that hungry to be honest, although I do get a few rumbles in the tum tum, but I just keep drinking water. peeing all the time,so the exercise is good

15 days hols, you lucky woman, where are you going?? are you gonna do this while there, or enjoy and be as good as you can be??

me and hubster are going away in middle of May and I am already thinking of salads and protein and then get right back on this as soon as I am back.. I am hoping that I wouldn't put
any weight on doing that.. mad isn't how you think while on this .. Its a mental diet that's for sure..

You could loose 1stone easily hun, its cos your not that big that's why its slower.

Yep I weigh in on monday.. you fancy buddying up???

haha, your son's dinner does sound right up my street too, so look how determined you are to not lick the plate

I haven't done the ketosis Sticks. you must be in ketosis hun. If your hungry, are you drinking all your water? as that seems to save me sometimes. I am on SS and have 5 stone to loose ;o(, are you loosing still on the SS+? did you do that in your first week with your fab 10lb loss??

wow, 15 days holiday, you lucky woman, where are you going??

We are going on hols in middle of May and am hoping to stick with fish/chicken vege and salads, I am sure I can't put on weight doing that ??? this diet is such a mental diet isn't it.. I feel bit obsessive with it as I am thinking about it all the time.. Nice to chat with someone who is doing it too ;o)

your sons dinner sounds lush, right up my street too, but look how well you did by not licking the plate ;o). that's control hun.

Well I still havr around 50ish lb to lose (not sure what that is in stone, maybe 3.5?) Thats loads!! haha - Im only on a tight deadline now because of a holiday Im going on but then I will be straight back on it when Im back (no doubt to lose the weight I gain whilst im away..)

I think Im drinking enough, Im having between 4-5 litres a day, Im used to drinking lots of water anyway so that isnt really any different for me but I notice its a real challenge for some people!

Yep last week I done mixture or SS and SS+ (mainly because I was starving so badly that I was literally on the tip of cheating so my consultant told me to do that rather than risk falling off the wagon) so yes the 10lb loss was inc about 4 days on SS+

We are going to Mexico, and I really cant wait but hence the determination to lose as much as possible as I have size 12 bikinis to get into (which I am currently no where close to fitting into) challenge and a half!! This is definitely a mental thing like you say, Im literally telling myself every few mins to just stick with it and you can do this - which is why everyday drags for me now!!! :/
Yes when Im away Im going to be sticking to salads and meat and thats it, Im not carb binging as it will only make me ill and bloated and I really dont need that when Im wearing swimwear everyday!
Oooooh where are you going in May??? Is that your goal your aiming for? How much do you want to lose by then?

Monday is weigh in day for me, we should def buddy up! I tend to rant a lot of the time on here and thats mainly because I find it helps with the constant starvation torture Im going through! Haha
Also... did you measure yourself at the beginning??x

Morning,
Wow mexico, amazing, you will have a fab time, have you been before? I haven't but a friend of mine just got back and she said it was amazing ;o).
we are going to portugal 19th May - only for a week, but I would love to loose 2 more stone by then - but we are going to vegas in october for a friends 40th which we are sooooooooooo mega excited about, that I would
love to be slim by then, but really I want to be 11 stone by august if I can. I am worried about the steps, thinking I wouldn't loose on the next steps, which is mad, as everyone could loose on the 1000 cal couldn't they. My relationship with food is soooooooooo messed up through years of dieting and putting on blah blah blah.

so you doing the 810sometimes makes me feel better considering you lost 10lb.

have you weighed yourself ? how much do you wanna loose by Monday.. i really would love another 7lb but not sure I will..

defo up for buddying up. it does get you abit obsessed this diet eh.. shall we take it off here and email ? or keep on here? bit annoying on here as you never know if you have a reply.

Hey Debs, sorry for my delayed reply, its been a crazy few days at home (teenage son issues!!) if you go on subscribed threads it should let you know people who have replied to threads that you have, thats the only way I can keep track!

Im not sure it was the 810 Ive done, with the 200cal meal, its more like 650 for the day?

I havent been before no, but I just cant wait to be on a beach for 2 weeks and not doing anything haha - Ive heard great things so Im really excited!! Portugal will be lovely and warm, and May still gives you enough time to get lose the weight, I think you can lose the 2 stone by then, just need to be really good and Vegas too how amazing!! have you been before? I went 2 years ago and bloody loved it, it really is my kind of place, big, dramatic, over the top and plus casinos galore, where I got hooked to the slots haha - you will have an amazing time out there and what a great incentive to keep you on track!

I have been weighing myself yes and it seems Ive only lost 3lb this week (boooo, half of what I actually wanted!) and my weigh in has changed to tomorrow as I had a stupid meeting at work that i couldnt get out of which is when my weigh in time was meant to be. Have you been weighing yourself this week? What time if your weigh in today?
To be honest Im not that annoyed at the 3lb as I have had about 4 meals SS+ meals this week, so I guess that might have slowed things down a bit? Im going to try SS only for the next 7 days straight, really have to focus now with 13 days left!!

Nice to hear from you ;o), I have now subscribed, didn't realise I had to do that bit too.

Do you have a teenage son?? you not old enough woman..

3lb is amazing if you have had a little food too. and yep your right, you wouldn't be having 810 cals if its only a small meal.. and a week of SS should shift a nice amount for you. Just think of your lush holiday..

Not been to vegas before but am mega excited, I do love a bit of over the topness . Just been looking at the helicopter ride which we are gonna do and the Cirque de solei.. need to start saving some casharoony sharpish.

I get weighed at 7pm tonight and been weighing every day.. haha, shouldn't really do that, but I like to see what's happening..
